Place Annotations on Map with NSDictionary/NSArray?

[adamstorr]

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the help in advance... this one has been killing me for the past couple of hours.

I am currently pulling in a JSON feed and storing it in a NSDictionary & NSArray. I'm trying to add an annotation for each item being pulled in (time, type, latitude, and longitude). So far, I can extract each value from the Array and have them all repeat with a "for" in the console (see code below).

How to I store these values as an annotation? Any help would be great.

Below is my failed attempt...

- (void)viewDidLoad {
  [super viewDidLoad];

 // Download JSON Feed
 NSDictionary *feed = [self downloadFeed];
 NSArray *streams = (NSArray *)[feed valueForKey:@"stream"];


 [mapView setMapType:MKMapTypeStandard];
 [mapView setZoomEnabled:YES];
 [mapView setScrollEnabled:YES];
 MKCoordinateRegion region = { {0.0, 0.0 }, { 0.0, 0.0 } }; 
 region.center.latitude = 29.719023;
 region.center.longitude = -114.157110;
 region.span.longitudeDelta = 0.01f;
 region.span.latitudeDelta = 0.01f;
 [mapView setRegion:region animated:YES]; 

 [mapView setDelegate:self];

 int Info;
 for (Info = 0; Info < streams.count; Info++) {
  NSDictionary *stream = (NSDictionary *)[streams objectAtIndex:Info];
  NSLog(@"Time: %@", [stream valueForKey:@"TheTime"]); 
  NSLog(@"Type: %@", [stream valueForKey:@"Type"]); 
  NSLog(@"Longitude: %@", [stream valueForKey:@"Longitude"]); 
  NSLog(@"Latitude: %@", [stream valueForKey:@"Latitude"]); 

  NSString *getLat = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat: @"%@", [stream valueForKey:@"Latitude"]];
  NSString *getLong = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat: @"%@", [stream valueForKey:@"Longitude"]];

  NSString *getCoord = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat: @"{%@,%@}", getLat, getLong];
  getCoordinates = getCoord;


  DisplayMap *ann = [[DisplayMap alloc] init]; 
  ann.title = @"%@", [stream valueForKey:@"TheTime"];
  ann.subtitle = @"%@", [stream valueForKey:@"Type"]; 
  ann.coordinate = getCoordinates;

  [mapView addAnnotation:ann];

  }
}

I think I found my issue... I'm now trying "initWithCoordinates" but I'm getting an error saying its not a true declaration.

Help!
